St Andrews Medical School Applicants - 2016 Entry

Hey guys!

I cannot seem to find a thread for 2016 entry, so I thought I would start one for all us aspiring Saints.

I'm thinking of applying here as long as my UKCAT is alright!

Hey! My stats are not the best out there, but they are:

S5: AAAAA
S6: AAA
UKCAT: 712.5 (Band 2 :frown:)
PS - probably my strongest part!

Yourself?

What would you say is a competitive UKCAT score for St Andrews?

Those are great stats! :smile:
I'm in sixth year now, so I haven't done my AHs so:
S5: AAAAA
UKCAT: 730, band 2 (very disappointed with this, although apparently St. Andrews don't use it a lot - only as part of your interview)
PS: I just finished mine yesterday, and I think this may be my strongest part too..
is it safe to apply with a UKCAT score of 682 but good academics and a good ps? Like will i get an interview?
Does anyone know the "cut-off score" (I know it's not really a cut-off but I mean like rough score needed) for interview from last year?

This is what it says on their website

The average global UKCAT score (combined verbal reasoning/quantitative reasoning/abstract reasoning/decision analysis) for those we made offers to for 2015 entry was 2700. However the UKCAT test can vary each year. We cannot judge what the UKCAT scores for our applicants will be for 2016 entry.
Interview in January!! Anyone else?

phew, the waiting process is slowly killing me
Has St. Andrew's emailed anyone else asking what they've done with their gap year? They emailed me asking for a detailed list.

Yes, I mentioned some of it on my personal statement. I guess they just wanted clarification.
